The blue one is much bigger and has some dust on it but looks good to use. Went down to the container to see if there were any other tarps in there and there are either two or three dark grey tarps right when you walk in. They look in good condition but I'm not sure if they are ours or NOAAs'. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY waters: Sat Mar 14 23:54:50 GMT 2020 No data today. ___end___ ONSITE STAFF: waters
